A two-equation turbulence model (one equation for turbulence kinetic energy and a second
for a generic turbulence length-scale quantity) proposed by Umlauf and Burchard [J. Marine …

This report is documentation for a numerical ocean model created by Alan Blumberg and me
around 1977. Subsequent contributions were made by Leo Oey, Jim Herring, Lakshmi …

This paper presents a 3D model in sigma coordinates. Although the principles it is based on
have been established for some time, some original aspects for this type of 3D mode …

Numerical simulations of the Hudson River estuary using a terrain‐following, three‐
dimensional model (Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS)) are compared with an …

This book sets forth the physical, mathematical, and numerical foundations of computer
models used to understand and predict the global ocean climate system. Aimed at students …

A 1/8° global version of the Navy Coastal Ocean Model (NCOM) is described with details of
its formulation, implementation, and configuration of the vertical coordinate. NCOM is a …

The purpose of this chapter is to present some features of the equation of state used in
MOM4p1, with the discussion here an extension of that given in Griffies et al.(2004). The …

The three‐dimensional structure of the summertime circulation of the Yellow Sea (hereafter
YS) is studied by using a prognostic wave‐tide‐circulation coupled model based on the …

The use of σ-coordinate ocean models has historically been considered a disadvantage for
large-scale climate studies. The main reason resides in the non-alignment of the vertical …
